What's the format value from the HWND returned from CreateWindow()?
The HWND
(Window Handle) returned from the CreateWindow()
function is a unique identifier for a window in the Windows operating system. It represents a window object and is used to interact with and manipulate the window.
The HWND
value is a 64-bit or 32-bit numeric identifier depending on the platform (64-bit on modern systems). However, the exact format and interpretation of the HWND
value are implementation details specific to the Windows operating system and its internal window management mechanisms.
From a programming perspective, you generally don't need to interpret or manipulate the HWND
value directly. Instead, you pass the HWND
value to other window-related functions or APIs to perform window operations, such as moving, resizing, or sending messages to the window.
For example, in a Windows programming language like C++ with the WinAPI, you would use the HWND
value in subsequent function calls like SendMessage()
, SetWindowPos()
, or ShowWindow()
to interact with the window.
If you have a specific use case or need to perform a particular operation related to the HWND
value, please provide more details, and I can assist you further.
